"I tider av ökad exkluderande nationalism och polarisering behöver Sverige en antirasism som är konsekvent och som klarar av att uppmärksamma alla former av rasism."
Så snyggt gjort!

2024 is the year when the Taliban continue creating the world’s most serious women’s rights crisis. After two years rule, they have systematically violated the rights of women and girls including as they relate to education, paid employment, freedom of speech and movement

After 3 inspiring years of work, the @ipbes.bsky.social-Transformative Change assessment is finally out. Transformative change for biodiversity is urgent, necessary, challenging - but possible! Reconnecting people & nature through biocultural conservation approaches is a key strategy. www.ipbes.net
The #TransformativeChange Assessment is the 1st @ipbes.bsky.social report on the root causes of the biodiversity crisis:
➡️ Disconnection / domination of nature & people
➡️ Concentration of power & wealth
➡️ Prioritization of short-term gains

Great news!
”Skyldigheten att följa gällande lag är standard i en rättsstat […] detta tycks regeringen vilja runda med sitt löfte om att stoppa fler svenska medborgarskap, i väntan på en ny lag. Om regeringen agerar så, måste domstolar och myndigheter göra motstånd.” www.dn.se/debatt/reger...
Hurra!
